In the Name of the Father

Despite having a gay older brother, Gabriel is struggling to come out to his parents. It doesn't help that all his family can focus on is his father's upcoming ordination as a deacon amid news of the Vatican's decision to defrock a cardinal for the sexual abuse of children over many years, including during his time as bishop of the church Gabriel grew up attending. Gabriel, and the rest of the Mulholland family, must come to terms with what could be Patrick's complicity in the cover-up of these heinous crimes. 5 CHARACTERS.
